Ube is relatively small, and getting a rental car is a prudent choice. It will make your travel simpler and help you discover hidden gems at your pace. Compact or economy class cars are recommended as they're perfect for the city's narrow lanes and easier to park. Our platform compares prices from various providers, ensuring you the best deal. Remember, in Japan, they drive on the left side, just like in the UK!
Parking in Ube is hassle-free with numerous parking lots and multi-level parking structures. However, parking on streets could get you a ticket. The speed limit is usually 40-50 kph in cities and 80-100 kph on expressways. Uniquely, bicycles are regarded as vehicles in Japan, and you're required to pay attention to cyclists on the road.
A must-visit is the Ube Public Park, acclaimed as one of Japan's top 100 urban parks. It offers beautiful landscapes, a fantastic variety of flowers, and a famous sculpture exhibition.
Tokiwa Park is an expansive recreational area with a zoo and an art museum surrounded by nature's resplendence on display all year round.
Ube experiences four distinct seasons. Spring (March to June) is a cherry blossom spectacle, summer (July to September) a bit hot and humid, autumn (October to November) mild and ideal for sightseeing, and winter (December to February) cold with rare snowfall.
The local currency is Japanese Yen (¥), and cards are widely accepted. English is not commonly spoken, but you'll find signs and menus in English at tourist spots and restaurants. A translation app or a small phrasebook could be beneficial.
To sum up, Ube offers an amalgamation of history, art, and nature's beauty. With a rental car at your disposal, navigating this charming city would be a breeze. So pack your bags and buckle up for a delightful adventure!
